Well after watching the Ken Burns series THE WAR ad naseum ad naseum,
I thought I'd come into the group today with one of my curious questions.

What did your parents, family, etc. do in the big WWII.

Mine worked at the Canada Car foundry in what was then called
Fort William, Ontario.

They were inspectors helping to make Hawker Hurricanes and later other
types of figthers including the Curtis Helldiver.

How about your folks.....

My dad was CO of the 82nd Combat Engineers Battalion.
During the invasion his unit built many of the pontoons and other support
structures
needed for the march to Berlin.

My mom was a secretary in Washington DC at one of the government offices.
